At the Monastery of the Yellow Rose, Afrafa had an impressive rise through the order and performed many great feats. Notably, she was the youngest ever monk to ride a remorhaz, achieving this dangerous test of skill aged only 15 and as a very low-ranked monk, around 1349 DR.[1] This earned her the right to challenge for the rank of Master of Dragons.[2]

By the age of 25, in 1359 DR, Afrafa had become Master of the South Wind and the highest-ranked woman in the history of the Monastery of the Yellow Rose. She was already preparing to challenge for the next rank. She followed the example set by Kane and took to wandering.[1]
